"Ishkode! Ishkode!" lyrics

"Ishkode! Ishkode!"

Bonfire before anyone notices
At the party they've opened up
Bonfire without anyone noticin'
They started talkin' sorrows they couldn't name
Sorrows they couldn't name

(Ishkode, ishkode) [?]
(Ishkode, ishkode) [?]
(Ishkode, ishkode) [?]
(Ishkode, ishkode) [?]

Bonfire, bonfire
There are sorrows in me that I find hard to bring out to the surface
In a day-to-day conversation
But bonfire, around a bonfire like yourself
Just starin', I can't take my eyes off it
I can't take my eyes off it, I just keep starin'
And sorrows come out, I start talkin' about sorrows that I can't name
Ishkode

(Ishkode, ishkode) [?]
(Ishkode, ishkode) [?]
Ishkode, bonfire, fire
[?]
Ishkode, ishkode, [?]
Come look at it, you'll start

Ishkode, bonfire in front of you
Once start to talk in ways I wouldn't usually talk
Usually talk
Usually talk
